Warner Norcross + Judd LLP - IP Group operates in Chemistry & Materials and has 8,058 career applications. Its resolved allowance rate is 92.57%, indicating that most applications reaching resolution were allowed.
The profile has 41 pending office actions. An average of 2.02 office actions per allowance provides a measure of prosecution activity associated with successful outcomes, useful when evaluating expected response workload in this technology area.
Based on the USPTO statutory response window for each pending office action. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date; the rest are excluded from the tile counts.
Every pending office action with a known statutory deadline, placed on a days-until-due axis. Dots left of Today are overdue; the further right, the more runway. Cases that share a deadline window stack vertically. 6 of the docket's apps have a known mailing date.
Difficulty is derived from the rejection statutes on the most recent pending office action. §101-driven and multi-statute cases are graded Hard; §112-only and obviousness-type double-patenting cases are graded Easy; everything else is Medium. "Unknown" means we have not yet parsed a statute for that office action.
| Bucket | Cases |
|---|---|
| §101 + other | 1 (3%) |
| §103 only | 13 (34%) |
| §112 only | 1 (3%) |
| Double-patenting + other | 5 (13%) |
| Multi-statute (no §101) | 18 (47%) |
